UK MORNING BRIEFING: De La Rue, Shanks Issue Profit Warnings

Fri, 26th Sep 2014 07:21

LONDON (Alliance News) - Banknote printer De La Rue and waste management business Shanks Group have both seen their shares tumble at the start of trade Friday after the companies separately issued profit warnings.

Lloyds Banking Group has raised GBP161 million by selling 57.5 million shares in TSB Banking Group at 280 pence each, a sale that leaves it with a stake of about 50% in the business it is spinning out.

The average asking price for a house in the UK was flat on month in September, property tracking website Hometrack said on Friday - snapping a string of 19 straight months of gain. That followed the 0.1% increase in August. Among the individual components of the survey, new buyers with agents, volume of property listings, sales agreed and asking price achieved all moved lower in September. On a yearly basis, prices climbed 5.0%, slowing from the 5.5% increase in the previous month.
----------
Germany's import prices declined at a faster rate in August, though less than the consensus estimate, a report from the statistical office Destatis showed Friday. Import prices dropped 1.9% year-over-year in August following the 1.7% fall in July. Economists had expected import prices to decline 2%.
----------
Germany's consumer sentiment is set to fall in October, a survey by the market research group GfK, based on responses from 2,000 households, said Friday. The forward-looking consumer confidence index dropped to 8.3 in October from 8.6 in September. It was forecast to drop marginally to 8.5.
This was the second consecutive decline for the indicator, but it continues to be at a good level, the research group said.
---------
French consumer confidence remained stable as expected in September, survey data from the statistical office Insee showed Friday. The consumer confidence remained at 86 for the third consecutive month in September, in line with the consensus estimate.
---------
Core consumer prices in Japan gained 3.1% on year in August, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications said on Friday. That was below forecasts for 3.2% and down from 3.3% in July. Overall inflation was up an annual 3.3% - matching forecasts and slowing from 3.4% in the previous month.
----------
The US and its Arab allies have intensified airstrikes against oil refineries controlled by the Islamic State group in eastern Syria, killing at least 14 jihadists and five civilians in overnight hits, a monitoring group said on Thursday. The strikes, part of an offensive in Syria launched by the US and its Arab allies earlier this week, targeted 12 oil installations in the eastern provinces of Deir al-Zour and al-Hasakah on Thursday, the US military said. The Islamic State, which seized all major oilfields and installations in Deir al-Zour starting in July, uses oil revenues to fund its war machine. Pentagon spokesman Admiral John Kirby described the attacks by US, Saudi and Emirati aircraft as "successful."
----------
Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Thursday told world leaders at the UN General Assembly that the US-led coalition against the Islamic State group in the Middle East was a "strategic mistake."
Rouhani said his country was prepared to "play our permanent constructive and positive role," in fighting against the terrorism and extremism, but emphasized that Western leadership in the Middle East war was unwelcome. "I believe if countries claiming leadership of the coalition, do so to continue their hegemony in the region, they would make a strategic mistake," Rouhani said.
-----------
Wins and losses were scored Thursday in the battle with Ebola in West Africa, set against the backdrop of world leaders gathering in New York to pledge more than 300 million dollars of additional support. Bright spots came in the form of a World Health Organization (WHO) announcement that infections had stabilized in Guinea, one of the disease's hot spots, as well as the reported recovery of a US doctor. However, a Spaniard airlifted home was reported dead of the disease. Speaking at a UN-organized event, US President Barack Obama said that international cooperation was vital to curbing the disease.

Apple had sold over 10 million new iPhones within just three days of its sales launch.
